Sorry for this mistake. Don't worry, like you said it highlights the differences in the code!

From my amateur experience with C, I know the "," will split the string "contactgroup1, contactgroup2" into "contactgroup1" and " contactgroup2" (note the space.) Whether Nagios would then realise that " contactgroup2" and "contactgroup2" should be the same thing, I'm not sure. > > -- > Mathieu Gagné > > -- Andy Shellam Business Systems Architect Network Mail NetServe Support ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
